30 Short RF Dimensions

[Matt74]

Hi,
I have some loose ammo, which I believe is 30 Short RF, but am not sure. I tried to find the dimensions online, but no luck. Wondering if anyone has a Cartridges of the World, and could pull the dimensions for me. There are no head stamps. Here is a pic. On the left, is a CIL 32 Short RF I pulled from a box I have, the smaller cartridge on the right is the one in question.
Thanks,.
Matt

Yes, I had found that as well. Thanks. I was hoping for some more detail. Would like to know the bullet diameter as well. I do know that the 32 S RF ctdg was made by about 20 different mfrs over the decades and the differences are many. I am not sure how much variation there was in the .30.

Bullet diameter for the 30 short is .286

Bingo! Just checked with the calipers, they’re indeed 30RF.
Thanks guys!!
